If fuel mileage is more important then power, buy an older truck with a 6 cylinder. I'm looking at this '08 F-250 at the moment but if there is nothing that can be done about the gas mileage I may have to rethink this. Ford pick up gas mileage If you have the 4. ? Is there nothing that can be done such as a chip to get better mileage? If you are doing all city 10-13 14-15 city or highway? Btw, I'm an hvac mechanical sub contractor so this is going to be a full time work truck which will see a lot of miles. It is a heavy heaviest among Big 3?? You would not even get that with a diesel which is more fuel efficient then a gas engine.
They all blame it on bad shocks, suspension parts, ect. It' … s all in the driving habits and patience of the individual. Won't hardly climb a mountain pass in fourth gear empty though.

Not much for fuel mileage, but those 390s will about pull your house. I have some concerns about the gas mileage on a 5. I was hoping 16-17 city, 20-22 highway. I was hoping 16-17 city, 20-22 highway. I still have the original brakes and factory tires and they are not even close to changing yet. Your sitting in a 3 ton + truck that's pushing alot of air. I daily see pick ups with 25,000 30,000 with rounded edge front tires and brake dust coated front rims.
Zero it at the next fill up then when you fill up again make note of the mileage. Now take the miles and divide it by the gals pumped. My lifetime avg since buying the truck in '07 is pretty much dead on 14. V8 gas gets 11-13 V10gas gets 9-12 7. In the city I'll get 17-19 mpg.
I was hoping 16-17 city, 20-22 highway. I can't figure out how this is possible. My old ford f100 gets 18 or so w … ith a 240 6. You could shoot for 14-15 on a good day, but 20 is almost out of the question.

That's what I get with my 2001 f-150 4. No, chips will do little if anything. He's full of it, plain and simple. I'm looking for a new to me used truck and was looking at a few F-250's.
These engines had higher compression with less restricted intake and exhaust. It is a heavy heaviest among Big 3?? Going back to the 1980s 6. I've heard from 8 to 16. . I dont even think the lie-o-meter would read this. Wonder if he's hitting the reset on the lie-o-meter after he tops over a hill and reads it after coasting for a while.
